November 8, 1920, was a Monday. Where many ads asked for means, this one admits to small means and asks for a working woman, not a lady of property. To keep company was to court. The closing r is the paper’s insertion code. For where people in Phoenix and Tucson post personal ads now, see our guide to personal ads in Phoenix and Tucson.
Public domain in the United States: published before 1931.
Transcribed from the page image and checked against the original; spelling and punctuation are as printed, and words broken across lines are rejoined. Capital letters are also as printed: papers set the first line of each ad in capitals, so the capitals stop wherever that line ended, sometimes in the middle of a word.
